The strongest and most durable dental crown available near Richmond — zirconia crowns combine exceptional strength with natural aesthetics. From £750.
Zirconia (zirconium dioxide) is the most advanced crown material available in dentistry — combining exceptional strength with a natural, tooth-like appearance. Zirconia crowns are metal-free, biocompatible and can be milled to a precise shade match, making them suitable for both front and back teeth.
Zirconia is approximately five times stronger than porcelain, making it ideal for back teeth that bear significant bite forces, patients who grind, and cases where crown longevity is a priority. Unlike metal-ceramic crowns, there is no dark metal margin at the gum line — the crown looks naturally tooth-coloured all the way to the root.
Full contour zirconia crowns are milled entirely from a single block of zirconia for maximum strength. Layered zirconia has a zirconia core with porcelain applied over the top for even greater aesthetic refinement — ideal where appearance is the primary concern. Your dentist will recommend the most appropriate type.
Yes — zirconia is one of the most biocompatible materials used in dentistry. It is hypoallergenic, does not corrode and is well-tolerated by gum tissue. It is an excellent choice for patients with metal sensitivities or who prefer a completely metal-free restoration.
